"How bout we parade all the homeless vets in America to housing & health care?" - Jeffrey Wright

On Twitter. The best response to let's have a military parade.

Other responses -

1. Cost of moving equipment and vehicles to DC - most heavy equipment outside of DC
2. Tearing up PA Ave asphalt
3. Rehearsing (both time and effort and fact will tear up more asphalt)
4. Military hate it - long days, lots of standing, walking, cleaning up equipment and uniforms.
5. Far better uses for money to show respect military

I wonder what this serves.

I wonder who are his masters.

It's been over a year now and this has got to be one of the worst, longest-running jokes in history.
